    Increase Efficiency with the NX-to-VERICUT Interface

    Integrate VERICUT into your Siemens PLM process and simplify setting up, simulating, and optimizing your NC programs.

    Seamless Integration with Siemens PLM Software


    VERICUT is the worlds leading INDEPENDENT CNC simulation software used in nearly every industry by users of ALL leading PLM and CAM systems!
    The NX-to-VERICUT Interface from CGTech provides an easy & convenient way to verify, optimize and analyze: individual NC programs a series of selected tool paths a complete sequence of operations... directly from within Siemens NX!
    To launch VERICUT and verify NC programs within Siemens NX, simply select the desired operations from a list and select the VERICUT option. Settings from the Operations Navigator will be automatically transferred to VERICUTs Project Tree.

    FAST AND EASY SETUP


    With the NX Interface, NC programs are linked to manufacturing operations, enabling easy selection of tool path motion from the desired operation. All tool path and tooling information is automatically transferred to VERICUT. Design, Stock, and Fixture models are also automatically transferred to VERICUT in their proper orientation. The interface supports VERICUTs multiple setup functionality and, by using coordinate systems, models are properly positioned on the machine for each setup.

    INDEPENDENT POWER AND FLEXIBILITY


    The VERICUT process runs independent from the CAM system so you can continue working in NX while verifying the NC program.

    VERICUT OVERVIEW
    VERICUT simulates milling, drilling, turning, multi-tasking mill/turn, and EDM operations. Errors that could ruin the part, damage the xture, or break the cutting tool are easily identied. VERICUT supports G-codes and native CAM les and includes analysis tools to measure and compare the cut part with the design model. You can model any cutter, xture, or holder shape. During simulation you can create in-process inspection instructions and export a CAD model of the as-machined part.

    CRASH Your Machine!

    ...as long as its in VERICUT

    VERICUT is the leading CNC simulation and optimization software for manufacturing! With VERICUT, you can: detect potential collisions and NC program mistakes without doing a prove-out, improve cutting efciency, perform detailed part analysis, automatically generate inspection instructions, and make in-process, as-machined CAD models.

    CNC MACHINE SIMULATION

    A single crash can be extremely expensive, ruin the machine, and delay the entire production schedule! VERICUT enables you to simulate your CNC machines so you can detect collisions between portions of the machine, the part, xtures and holders, etc. before any actual cutting occurs. And, because the simulation is driven by the same logic as the machines control, it behaves exactly like the physical machine and is the most accurate collision-checking available.

    NC PROGRAM OPTIMIZATION
    Optimizing cutting speeds is an effective way to reduce cycle time, increase cutter life, and improve nish quality! Based on cutting conditions and tool capability, VERICUT automatically assigns the best feed rates for each cutting condition encountered. It works on a simple premise: feed rates increase for lighter cuts or better conditions, and decrease as more material is removed. Without changing the trajectory, the updated feeds and speeds are applied to a new NC program.

    How software optimization works: As the cutting tool encounters more material, feed rates decrease; as less material is removed, the feed rates speed up accordingly. Based on the amount of material removed by each cut segment, OptiPath automatically calculates and inserts improved feed rates where necessary. Without changing the trajectory, OptiPath writes the updated feed rates to a new NC program.
